Take the mall to Datang

"Now all the school lieutenants come out." Yuchi Baolin shouted.

A total of [-] school lieutenants came out of the [-] soldiers, and together with the three captains, they formed a small square team.

"Okay, from now on, you will give priority to learning and mastering the use of cannons. First let me popularize the knowledge of these cannons..." Yuan Shan began to explain to everyone.

Then Zhang San came over with the carriage and shouted: "Master, I'm here."

"Baolin, go and ask him to distribute the operating manual on the car to the soldiers," Yuan Shan said.

"Teacher, most of the soldiers are illiterate." Yuchi Baolin explained.

"Of course I have thought about it, so these are comic strips, don't ink them and send them to them quickly, if they are not enough, then spread them out and let them memorize them." Yuan Shan said.

"Okay, teacher." Yuchi Baolin agreed.

"Report, the artillery is loaded." The soldier shouted.

"Aim and fire!" Yuan Shan shouted immediately.

"Boom boom boom..."

The school grounds were full of smoke and dust, and the soldiers who were watching behind were stunned by the loud sound and the land blasted by the projectile in the distance.

The horses in the schoolyard were frightened and began to neigh, as did the ghost hunter's war horse.

Yuan Shan was also a little excited about this improved cannonball, after all, this was his second time playing with cannonballs.

"It's really exciting, let's do it again." Yuan Shan exclaimed excitedly.

"Yuan Shilang, don't wait for me." Suddenly, I heard Xin Liangchou's voice.

"Xin Zhengjian, why are you here?" Yuan Shan asked.

"Your Majesty asked me to verify the performance of the artillery and cooperate with Yuan Shilang in training." Xin Liangchou said.

"That's good, just stay here and watch." Yuan Shan said.

"One more round, grasp the time and let me come one by one this time." Yuan Shan said.

"Boom boom boom..."

"It's really loud, and this time the two guns fire at the same time, watch the length of the matchlock on the gun, and remember the ignition time." Yuan Shan said.

"Boom boom boom..."

"One more round of killing streak." Yuan Shan said.

"Yuan Shilang, that used up [-] rounds of ammunition, and the stock of the ammunition supervisor's ammunition is not much." Xin Liangchou said distressedly.

These shells are treasures in the Military Weapons Supervision, and they are only used for testing. Where is it like Yuan Shan's game, thirty rounds a day can't last ten days if it goes on like this.

You must know that the production of these shells is not easy for the Military Weapons Supervisor, the process is complicated, and the output is very small because the stability of this improved gunpowder is really poor. If there are too many piles, there will be safety hazards, and there have been explosions in the warehouse before.

"Xin Jianzheng, there really aren't that many shells," Yuan Shan said.

"Not many really." Xin Liangchou replied.

"Understood, keep firing." Yuan Shan said.

"This..." Xin Liangchou was speechless.

The tricycle fired [-] shells after the sound of the three rounds. It doesn't matter how well these soldiers fought, they hit all kinds of targets.

Xin Liangchou couldn't bear to watch it any longer. It was not as accurate as the craftsmen who tested the cannon. He finally understood that this was purely for listening.

Xin Liangchou guessed right. Yuan Shan was just to listen. He is an ordinary person, and he really doesn't know much about artillery. His purpose is that these soldiers listen to the sound first.

"Yuan Shilang, this directly consumes half of the ammunition. The inventory of the Military Weapons Supervision is not much, and it may not be able to support the training tomorrow." Xin Liangchou persuaded.

"Xin Jianzheng, you are right, it's just that you can't have the projectiles. The use of artillery in war is like this. What you shoot is consumption. If you can't even take out the projectiles you are currently training, then the artillery project will not be good. If it goes on, a cannon without projectiles is just a pile of rotten iron." Yuan Shan said.

"Yuan Shilang, we also want to make more projectiles, but the stability of the improved gunpowder is too poor, so it is not easy to produce in large quantities." Xin Liangchou said helplessly.

Yuan Shan was a little curious about how the gunpowder formula he shared could be unstable. Could it be that the craftsman of the armory supervisor made a mistake in the formula.

"Gunpowder is unstable, did you make a mistake somewhere?" Yuan Shan said directly.

"Yuan Shilang, is the gunpowder okay?" Xin Liangchou also said suspiciously.

"Of course it's no problem. Could it be that I'm going to trick you, and I don't want to do anything to you?" Yuan Shan said.

"Um... that's right." Xin Liangcho thought about it.

"Well, I'd better go to the Military Weapons Supervision tomorrow to see how your gunpowder is made." Yuan Shan said.

"Then there will be Minister Lao Yuan." Xin Liangchou said humbly immediately.

"Keep shooting. Each of you captains has to light the fire a few times, follow the operating instructions, and do each one well." Yuan Shan said.

"Teacher, can you let us play, not to practice the use of artillery." Wei Dayou said from the side.

"Huh? You are all cavalry here to join in the fun." Yuan Shan said casually.

"Teacher, we are the instructor team of the Beiya Army. If we don't know how to use artillery, it's not a shame. It's a shame for the teacher." Wei Dayou said.

"Your sister used words to kill me, but what you said is not unreasonable, let all of your people take their positions to train with these soldiers." Yuan Shan said.

"Thank you teacher." Wei Dayou said immediately.

The 6000 people in the Beiya school grounds were almost listening to the sound this day. With the participation of ghost hunters, the test shooting did not come with ten cannons at once, but one by one.

Not to mention that after careful research by these people, the accuracy of this artillery has really improved a lot.

The shells were simply not enough for these people. After firing all the shells, the soldiers were asked to touch the artillery in batches and study it with the operation manual.

There are no more shells, how will tomorrow's training go on? Seeing Xin Liangchou beside him, he said, "Xin Jianzheng, let's go, let's go to the Ordnance Supervision."

"Okay..." Xin Liangchou had been waiting for Yuan Shan to speak.

Chapter 311 Selling Steam Engines

"Xin Jianzheng, why is this gunpowder warehouse fixed with iron?" Yuan Shan asked directly, standing at the door without going in.

"This is for reinforcement and also to prevent thieves from destroying it." Xin Liangchou said.

"These metals are easy to trigger sparks when they are bumped, and the gunpowder will be ignited when it encounters sparks. You are courting your own death." Yuan Shan yelled.

What Xin Liangchou heard was frightened for a while, he didn't think that this was the one that caused the safety hazard of the gunpowder depot. Hearing Yuan Shan's words, he immediately called someone to dismantle all the ironware in the warehouse.
